AsItChangesFocus,NuanceDiscontinuesSwypeKeyboardsforiOS

The Swype keyboards for iOS and Android have been discontinued. The move was first noticed by a Reddit user who received word from Nuance support that the popular software was no more.

As noted by Nuance:

We are sad to announce that Swype-Keyboard for iOS has been discontinued. Here is a statement from Swype Product Team:

Nuance will no longer be offering the Swype keyboard on iOS app store. We’re sorry to leave the direct-to-consumer keyboard business, but this change is necessary to allow us to concentrate on developing our AI solutions for sale directly to businesses.

While we’re sad about the end of Swype, other great third-party keyboards for iOS remain, including Gboard and many more.
